senate, senator john mccain of arizona. i started out by asking him about the damage that this entire process has done to his profession, to his party and to the country. >> we have damaged our credibility very badly, and all of us. the president's numbers have gone down. democrat's numbers have gone done. republican's numbers have gone down only greater. and it has eroded the confidence. you just showed, eroded the confidence on the part of the american people. remember that many of the members of the house were elected in 2010, promising to repeal or defund obama care. the problem with their strategy was that it was a fool's errand. we were not going to defund obama care. that's why we had an election in 2012. that's part of what that was all about. so it was a terrific mistake. we inflicted pain on the american people that was totally unnecessary. and we cannot do this again. we republicans have a hole that we've got to come out of. and obviously we're going to have to do a lot of work. well, he's entitled to his views.
